Random thought, do we think relegation wage decreases will compound in L1. E.g. a player on a 40% cut and £50k in the PL would have been on £30k this season, then subsequently £18k in L1? Might make some players easier to move on if so.

Home and Away Support/Atmosphere

Just how contradictory it is mate, don’t have a problem with it as such. Just one minute berating other fans for chants that don’t support the team to then doing it themselves in a matter of minutes -

Very amused by a pair of ‘fans’ behind me in the lower tier yesterday. Got themselves all irate at the chanting about going down to league 1 etc, stating the need to ‘back the lads’ - a reasonable opinion of course. Or at least it would be if in the next 10 mins we didn’t have: 1. Calling Daka a “useless f***ing knobhead” 2. Calling Skipp a “stupid slaphead willy puller” 3. Attempting to start a chorus of ‘sideways and backwards’ 4. Oles when we passed the ball about Braindead. And for what it’s worth I can see both sides but honestly these players do deserve the stick they get. -
I think both things can be true - performances (aside from Norwich and QPR) have improved but results haven’t. Under Cifuentes we were lucky to get a lot of the points we have. Under Rowett, we’ve been unlucky to not accumulate more points (Stoke, Watford, Preston in particular). I’d be willing to bet if we’d had Rowett from the start of the season we wouldn’t be in the relegation conversation, though we likely wouldn’t have been pushing up the top end of the table either.

Me and my mate got 2 as members.

Just got 2. Buzzing and glad some common sense has prevailed.

It’s just so nonsensical all round. You’d have thought in their position, Wednesday would just be happy to sell as many tickets as possible and you’d think we’d want as many fans there as possible to back the team in a crucial game. Seems like Wednesday are being greedy and want all tickets purchased and paid for up front, and we’re being stubborn and won’t do that through fear we won’t sell them (I think we would for what it’s worth). Can see why the clubs are 22nd and 24th… awful management of this situation.

One small thing I noticed and liked was him grabbing Okoli at full-time and making him go and give his shirt to a kid who had asked for it after initially either not seeing or ignoring them. Good performance on the pitch too, first time in a while I thought we looked more or less completely comfortable at the back,

I’m in this boat. Surely they will, no excuse not to.

I suspect we’ll see Winks, Ricardo, Daka and Mukasa come back in. I think they’ll be managing JJ’s minutes otherwise I’d want him to start, obviously. BDCR has been doing ok but Mukasa is a much better player when he’s on it. Bobby isn’t a bad option off the bench to see out a game if we’re winning also.

IF (a big if) we stay up under Rowett, do we keep him on?
Devonfox1884 replied to LCFCCHRIS's topic in Leicester City Forum
Yes. But on the condition that it is 1 year, with a second being triggered by achieving a milestone - the playoffs. -
Allocation just over 2,200. Normal question: do we think it makes members?
-
Anyone received their tickets for this yet?

Begovic Ricky Okoli (Or Vesty/Lascelles if fit) Nelson Thomas Winks Skipp Fatawu Musaka BDCR Daka Gives us Mavididi, Monga, Aribo, Page, Aluko and Ayew (sadly) as our most likely options off the bench.

Bobby De Cordova-Reid joins permanently - Official
Devonfox1884 replied to moore_94's topic in Leicester City Forum
Be tempted to start him on the left against Norwich. -
Refreshing to see some fight and desire to keep the ball out the net. Little by little.

Divine Mukasa joins on loan - Official
Devonfox1884 replied to moore_94's topic in Leicester City Forum
I really liked how fuming he was at the end that we missed the chances and didn’t win. Think after the game I saw on the TV him talking through how the equaliser was allowed to happen with Ricky. Someone who has standards. Good lad. -
Stoke 2-2 LCFC, post-match thread
Devonfox1884 replied to Phil Mitchell's topic in Leicester City Forum
Gutted not to win, but if we replicate that second half consistently then we stay up - simple. Get James back, get Vestergaard or Lascelles back and get Abdul back and the team has enough if coached competently, and I think they will be. -
It is. But I want to do the ground and want to make a weekend of it with my mates. The football is secondary at this point
-
I’m bloody mental, but do we think with our current trajectory this reaches members?

Realistic Managerial Replacements
Devonfox1884 replied to winteriscoming's topic in Leicester City Forum
Pearson for one last dance until the end of the season with Kingy as assistant makes so much sense. Shame how it ended before means it’ll never happen. -
Joe Aribo on loan (ffs its now official.)
Devonfox1884 replied to Ian Nacho's topic in Transfer Talk
Bodies through the door to hopefully keep us up. Only a loan so not too fussed by this as long as we don’t sign him permanently in the summer. -
Disgusting from Mavididi that.
